Crib Bench

About a year ago my mom gave us an old crib that had been sitting in her basement for awhile. From the very beginning I had plans to make it into a bench. We finally crossed it off our to-do list and it's now sitting in my booth!

Here is one of the long side rails that we used for the back of the bench.

Nate cut one of the end pieces in half and used them as the sides/arm rests for the bench.

He attached the three main pieces of the structure together with deck spindles.

It turned out better than cute, and what a great way to up-cycle! What a great team you both are together. Really nice, love the aged look and a great fall theme going on! Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration with Sunday’s Best – you helped make the party a success

What a fantastic idea! Turned out great. Thank you for sharing. Visiting from Boogieboard. Would love it if you would share this at my Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House. http://thededicatedhouse.blogspot.com/2012/09/make-it-pretty-monday-week-15.html Hope to see you at the bash!
